Club Brugge can clinch twentieth title in Mechelen Thursday

Club Brugge stands on the brink of a twentieth Belgian league title and a coveted second star on its shirt. A win on Thursday in Mechelen could secure the championship.

The club reinforced its lead with a 5-0 victory on Sunday against Union Saint-Gilloise, the current first‑place challenger. The result widened the gap at the top of the Champions Play‑offs.

After the win, Club Brugge holds a four‑point advantage over Union in the Jupiler Pro League Champions Play‑offs. The blue‑black side remains the leader with only two matchdays remaining.

The four‑point cushion gives Brugge a clear path but does not guarantee the title outright. The upcoming fixtures will decide whether the lead can be maintained.

With two games left, the championship can still be decided on Thursday in Mechelen, depending on the outcomes of the remaining matches. The scenarios are limited to Brugge needing a positive result while Union must win their games.

The club will look to close the season strongly and add the second star to its badge. The final two matchdays will determine if the twentieth title is confirmed.
